Cut a large section of the puff pastry – reserving some for “border” accents. Cut remaining section of puff pastry into thin strips and place on top edges of large puff pastry section. Pinch edges to create decorative effect. Bake in 400 degree oven until golden brown (refer to package instructions for baking).

Once baked, press center section of puff pastry down with back of spoon to allow room for pound cake. Cut thin slice of pound cake to fit in center section of baked puff pastry. Soak pound cake layer with Orange Liqueor or your choice of flavored syrup. Cover with layer of White Chocolate Pastry Cream.Add long lines of your choice of fresh fruit.
